Marvel at the massive life-sized terracotta warriors and horse troops. Experience the wonder of these ancient artifacts and gain a deep understanding of the First Emperor’s vision for his afterlife and his unification of China.
Next, visit Big Wild Goose Pagoda, a monumental pagoda almost known to every Chinese. It is a landmark structure of Buddhist culture from the Tang Dynasty (618–907) and a scripture-storing pagoda commissioned by Master Xuanzang to preserve Buddhist sutras. As the earliest and largest existing Tang Dynasty square pavilion-style brick pagoda in China, it was inscribed on the World Heritage List in 2014.

Its history can be traced back to the Sui and Tang dynasties, with the main body of the existing wall dating to an extension during the Ming Dynasty, giving it a history of more than 600 years. Optional activities include walking or biking on the wall. (Bike rental fee is at your own expense.) Lunch is optional and flexible, depending on your needs.

Becky was a great Tour Guide with a lot of historical knowledge
We had a wonderful experience with Ting our guide and our driver Zhang. We visited the terracote warriors and we went for a tour in old Xian.
We had this amazing tour with my husband. Our guide was Rosa. She is a fantastic guide, very knowledgeable and she knows all about history and most of all she is very caring and attentive. She took a great care of us during the trip and guided us to all the important spots and we had a great day! I highly recommend this tour for a very deep experience of Xian and China and especially I recommend Rosa as a guide
Ping texted me after I booked tickets for the Tang Dynasty show in Xi’an. She helped me to find my mistake with a date of the show and change it on time and found suitable guided tours with a Russian speaking guide. You know, there are 15 Russian speaking guides in Xi’an only. So, it was really luck! Of course, other languages are acceptable too, Ping can find a needed guide. Ping was always in touch with me and helped with advices during our trip. Our guide Anna and the driver were very friendly, hospitable and people in the know. 2 days tour was very interesting, eventful, informative and well organised. Million thanks to Ping and her team for our excellent experience in Xi’an. We do recommend Ping and her team if you are looking for a pleasant experience in Xi’an as well
Rosa, thank you. Everything was perfect. Airport pick up, tour, explanation, lunch, luxury transport. Highly recommended.
If was pleasure to communicate with Mrs Ping! Her support and advises and excellent level of English was appreciated. Many thanks again!
My partner had a last minute accident. We had to cancel trip to Xian. Forgot to cancel trip timely. However Cindy’s tour were happy to refund still.
This private tour was a good choice for a first-timer to Terracotta since you don't speak any Chinese and know nothing about 2200 years old history. It was an enriching experience, thanks to our wonderful guide Ping. She was teacher before, she was knowledgable about Chinese history, sharing many many interesting stories and details about each site of Warriors which one might miss. She is really has open mind, she could compare the culture difference and hisory development between China and Western countries since she had been to many cpuntries. She always asked if you understood the history well. Recommed this tour and Ping!
